@host.puppetmaster is empty

Support
1

Hi,

When I use a unattended and check the @host.puppetmaster variable I don't get a value back. I set a name in smart-proxy and all things seems work fine. I read here that normally the name will be retrieved from the smart proxy url.

https://foreman.example.com:8443

When I try a <%= @host.puppetmaster %> I get no value. When I try a @host.name I get a value.

What is wrong where I can check the code or why it will not retrieve it correctly?

Thanks for help Sven

Try to refresh features on the proxy. Does it have Puppet feature on? Is
it correctly bound to the subnet you use?

  1. is it maybe a problem that /etc/foreman-proxy/settings.d/puppet.yml -->
    :puppet: false ?

  2. i tryed to activate it with foreman-installer but it dont work. which
    should be the correct command?

  3. why i get a error that /etc/foreman-proxy/settings.d/foreman_proxy.yml
    are not exist?

i found a solution.

activate the puppet module in proxy server add

foreman-installer --foreman-proxy-puppetrun=true -> its sets
(/etc/foreman-proxy/settings.d/puppet.yml) to true

rescan the proxy an look there are puppet and puppetca, after that then go
to your host group or host recreate and then i see the correct value in
@host.puppetmaster

thanks

Sven
